CIMR-VUBA0018FAA

The CIMR-VUBA0018FAA from Yaskawa is a versatile variable frequency drive (VFD), designed for demanding applications. Operating with a single-phase input, this unit can handle a motor power rating of 5 HP at an input voltage of 240V AC and draws an input current of 17.5A. Users can adjust the output frequency between 0 and 400 Hz, enabling the drive to meet varying operational needs.

The overload handling capability is noteworthy, allowing for 150% of rated capacity for a brief period of one minute, which is a crucial feature for applications requiring temporary power boosts. This drive employs both V/f Control and Vector Control methods for precise motor control, enhancing operational efficiency.

Thermal management is achieved through convection cooling, ensuring reliable performance without the need for additional cooling equipment. Designed specifically for inverter duty applications, the CIMR-VUBA0018FAA is equipped with communication ports that utilize Modbus RTU over an RS-485 interface, facilitating integration into existing control systems.

With an IP20 protection rating, this drive is suitable for standard environmental conditions. It can operate within a temperature range of -10°C to 50°C, with storage temperatures extending from -20°C to 65°C, allowing for flexibility in various settings. The unit is also capable of functioning in 80% relative humidity as long as condensation is not present, making it adaptable to a variety of operational environments.
